| Just watched an incredibly uncomfortable live interview with nate silver on nbc, trying to explain how a 74% lead turned in to 20% long shot. He didn't have a clue. |

| And Silver was the guy that gave Trump the most leeway. Is 2016 the year of post-empirics? |

No it's just they're polls and are ultimately ficticious. A lot of people were probably hush hush about voting Trump. It's funny to see how baffled political scientists are right now. |

You know, there's one article in the Guardian that prepared me for this. I thought it was just a footnote in history, but the history of Trumpism is fascinating. It's well worth the read now.

According to The NYT, mostly the former (and a bit of the latter). White uneducated voters came out en masse and women didn't really ditch him as much as expected.
This REALLY was Brexit+++ as Donald Trump (and Michael Moore) had predicted.

Yep, uneducated white males came out in force like no one expected.
On another note, reddit is reporting Canada's immigration website have "gone down for some reason" lol |

Not just males, I saw figures for white women with less than bachelor's degrees voting like 64 to 36 for Trump. |

Valeu brother. But just thinking bigger picture, this is ing insane. So many people that just voted out of sheer anger. |

| It's pretty insane if you think about the fact that a guy with a lacklustre GOTV won against the campaign with the most advanced GOTV in history. This election just ran all over a whole bunch of conventional wisdoms. |
